    Cyclomatic Complexity and Cognitive Load Analysis: LINQ vs. Traditional Loops

    The analysis explores the relationship between cyclomatic complexity and cognitive load in software engineering through two methods for calculating moving averages. It highlights that lower cyclomatic complexity (LINQ version) can correlate with higher cognitive load, whereas a more traditional approach, despite higher complexity, may be easier for engineers to comprehend and maintain.
